[Signed] Lambert, Gavin. Inside Daisy Clover. First English Edition. 1963. Book and dust jacket are both in very good condition—jacket shows minor discoloration a small tear to the upper front cover. Book is warmly inscribed by Gavin Lambert, “Deb, with all my love as always, darling, G.”
According to the Guardian, there was no better source “for bitchy, witty and perceptive high-class gossip about Hollywood” than Gavin Lambert. In this book, the malice and innuendo are filtered through the soft focus lens of fictionalization. This, his most successful novel, covers the meteoric rise and just as rapid downfall of a young Judy Garland-type who is plucked from the streets to become a film star. Lambert’s friend Natalie Wood starred in the film adaptation.
“Christy Williams has an apartment in what Gloria calls the wrong part of Beverly Hills, I mean south of Romanoff’s.”
